    It’s Earnings Time!

    01:42 Microsoft issues light guidance even as Azure growth drives earnings beat

    • Microsoft shares were up after they reported earnings of 2.93 per share vs expectations of 2.73 per share.
      • Revenue was 62.02 billion vs 61.12 billion.
    • This represents a 17.6% year over year in the quarter.
    • The intelligent cloud segment produced $25.88 billion in revenue, up 20% and above the $25.29 billion consensus among analysts surveyed by Streets Accounts.
    • Revenue from Azure and other cloud services grew 30%, when analysts only expected 27.7%.
      • Six points are tied to AI as Microsoft now has 53,000 Azure AI customers and 1/3rd are new in the past year (per Microsoft.)

    02:46 Justin- “I don’t think the count the Open AI customers, do you? Because there’s way more people that have Open AI usage than 53,000. So I think this is legitimately Azure AI – which is Open AI under the hood – but specifically paying for that subscription.”

    04:19 Alphabet shares slide on disappointing Google ad revenue

    • Alphabet reported better-than-expected revenue and profit for the fourth quarter, but ad revenue trailed analysts projections.
    • Earnings per share were 1.64 vs 1.59 expected.
      • Revenue of 86.31 billion vs 85.33 billion expected
    • Google Cloud was 9.19 Billion vs 8.94 billion expected, according to Street.
    • That represents a 26% expansion in the fourth quarter.

    04:51 Justin- “…which is interesting, because you would expect that they’d have similar growth being tied to Bard and Gemini to be close to what Microsoft is doing.”

    12:02 Amazon reports better-than-expected results as revenue jumps 14%

    • Amazon also exceeded analysis expectations.
      • Earnings per share 1.00 vs 80 cents expected.
    • Revenue of 170 billion vs 166.2 bi

    01:48 More news from Broadcom – and this time they’re coming after the cloud. Broadcom ditches VMware Cloud Service Providers

    • Remember in November when Broadcom bought VMware for $61 billion dollars? Well, the reorganization from that purchase is continuing.
    • Broadcom is reportedly ditching the majority of their VMware Cloud Service Providers as part of the shakeup of the partner program.
    • Notable companies in the CSP program include Oracle, Azure, Rackspace, and Google. These larger companies most likely won’t be impacted (yet.)
    • It’s suspected that they will get moved over to a new partner program, but Broadcom is culling it down to only the largest partners to remain in the program.
    • There are lots of smaller cloud players who are in the CSP who will likely be impacted and should keep an eye on this over the next few months.
      • https://cloud.vmware.com/providers/search-result
    • It’s a bad look for Broadcom, as they told the EU that acquiring VMware would increase competition in the cloud space – but cutting partners out of the program seems to be a consolidation to me.

    03:29 Ryan – “I wonder if this is just going to be like new sales or something. Cause that seems very short notice if you’re on VMware as on one of these smaller cloud providers, that seems incredibly risky.”

    03:45 Matthew – “I feel like they have to have something lined up. Or let me rephrase that. I would assume slash hope they have something lined up because otherwise they’re gonna really piss off a lot of people.”

    7:20 OpenAI’s Annualized Revenue Tops $1.6 Billion as Customers Shrug Off CEO Drama

    • Listener Note: paywall article, but worth reading.
    • According to two people interviewed by the Information, Open AI’s revenue has grown to 1.6B from its ChatGPT product, up from 1.3b as of mid-October.
      • That’s a 20% growth over two months.
    • As this happened during the period of the leadership crisis, it seems to not have had much impact.
    • This roughly means OpenAI is making $130M a month from the sales of subscriptions. And yes, that includes us. You’re welcome, OpenAI.

    Also known as “things we’re always wrong about.”

    • Justin: Data Sovereignty will drive single panes of glass against multi-cloud
      • Totally missed on this on panes of glass, but OUT OF THE PARK when it comes to data sovereignty. That was a big deal this year.
    • Ryan: An influx of all of the AI and No-Code solution convergence.
      • We’re closer…but not quite there yet. Maybe another year or two.
    • Peter: Recession will drive significant developer layoffs, and drive automation solutions for ops and deployment..
      • So, layoffs were a thing. But not because of recession, but because of corporate greed. So that’s fun.

    06:50 Ryan – “I also think Microsoft will get there’s no matter which way it goes, right? Because they’re either gonna sell it directly, or their investment in Open AI will pay off through shareholder price of stocks.”

    01:09 Broadcom is killing off VMware perpetual licenses and strong-arming users onto subscriptions

    • Broadcom is wasting no time pissing off the VMware community after the closure of their purchase of Vmware. They moved quick!
    • With absolutely no warning, Broadcom is killing VMWares on-premise perpetual licenses, and forcing you to move onto subscriptions. According to Broadcom, this is “simplifying” their lineup and licensing model. Sure.
      • They are doing this by ending the sale of support and subscriptions effective immediately.
    • This impacts the Vsphere family of products, Cloud Foundation, SRM and the Aria suite.
    • You may continue to use your existing perpetual licenses until your current contract expires.
      • They will most likely provide a one time incentive of some kind for the transition to subscription. Then, you get to pay FOREVER. Insert Mr. Burns laugh here.
    • You will also be able to “bring your own subscription” for license portability to Vmware validated hybrid cloud endpoints running VMware Cloud foundation.
    • They are also sweetening the deal by offering 50% off Vmware Cloud Foundation, and including higher support service levels including enhanced support for activating the product and lifecycle management.
    • Competitors are rapidly raising their hand to fill the gap mainly led by Nutanix, who points out the entire business model for Broadcom is to maximize the acquired asset within 2 to 3 years and as a VMWare customer you will *feel* it.
    • There are also other alternatives – including Ze

    00:50 Broadcom announces successful acquisition of VMware

    • Broadcom has completed its acquisition of VMware… and apparently it’s a new and exciting era! (Hopefully more exciting than Tanzu has been.)
    • Broadcom is mostly known for networking communication chips, but has been diversifying their portfolio for a while now.
    • Vmware joins companies such as:
      • Rally Software
      • CA Products
      • Plex (not *that* plex)
      • Appneta
      • Clarity
      • Symantec
      • Siteminder

    01:58 Matthew – “I feel like whenever you get acquired, a lot of the duplicated admin services and like HR, finance, some of those kind of naturally – like whenever a company gets acquired, I feel like there’s always layoffs within the first six months, and it’s really just a lot of those overlapping services now that the parent org has. But I know that they own Symantec. That was news to me.”

    04:36 Ryan – “I think that the big value prop was for a lot of these things was, you know, being able to run that virtualized infrastructure and then the partnerships are, you know, to be able to run that with the same skill sets and the same people running both without having to get into the specifics of, you know, AWS or Azure cloud specifics. And so offering that as sort of a generalized compute… I think as cloud has become more prevalent and popular and there’s more people that know it, not enough, but still more. I think that value really goes down where you no longer need that sort of UI driven cloud management service that VMware provided for years.”

    01:48 Major Items

    Introducing Amazon CloudFront KeyValueStore: A low-latency datastore for CloudFront Functions

    03:43 Ryan – “I found this being announced pre-invent to be kind of shocking, because this is one of those announcements where you could re-architect your entire app for better performance using this type of solution, and it’s not even big enough for the main stage. But there’s huge potential in doing that edge transformation so that you can directly serve at the edge at much lower latency. So it’s awesome.”

    Announcing AWS Console-to-Code (Preview) to generate code for console actions

    *No Terraform yet, but hopefully that will come soon!

    05:18 Jonathan – “I think it’s great for learning too, actually. I mean, I use this in the Google console all the time because I try and put together a command line to do something and it fails miserably. And so I go and do it in the console and it generates the command line coding thing. Ah, I missed that thing, which isn’t documented anywhere.”
